Art in Bloom #2

Despite the crowded galleries and the poor lighting conditions for getting decent photos, I went to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts to photograph the event. Florists are assigned to a piece of art and then interpret it with a floral arrangement. The event lasts only three days because of the lifespan of the flowers so I had to brave the crowds. I did so with a light heart because I found a terrific parking space and the temperature was 63 degrees. Alleluia; after this terrible spring, the day was a delight.

The painting is "Tornado over St. Paul" and the arrangement amused me!!
